Keratoconus

What is Keratoconus?

Keratoconus is a progressive eye disease that causes the cornea to thin and bulge into a cone shape, which distorts vision. For those with keratoconus, traditional glasses are often not enough to correct their vision. In such cases, specialty contact lenses are necessary to achieve best-corrected vision.

Treatment Options

When it comes to contact lens services for the treatment of keratoconus, it is important to find a specialist who is experienced in fitting these types of lenses. A proper contact lens fitting is necessary for comfort and vision, while an improper fitting can result in significant damage to the eye. Additionally, regular follow-up appointments are necessary to ensure the lenses are fitting correctly and providing the best possible vision correction.  With over 10+ years of extensive experience in the treatment of Keratoconus and over 1000+ Scleral contact lens fits, Dr. Ken is an expert in this field.  Dr. Ken also regularly fits and designs custom RGP contact lenses for patients.
